Dear comrade!

I am very grateful for the information and for your kind offer of assistance. If it is not too much trouble, please rent me a simple, cheap, small room from the 26th.

I shall be in Copenhagen by the morning of the 26th (Bureau meeting). I shall try to call on you in the morning itself (I do not know when the train arrives: I shall probably go via Hamburg - Korsor). If you are not at home, leave me a letter with the landlady (fur Herrn Ulianoff). I need the room either by the week or by the month — depending on what is more customary in Copenhagen.

I shall stay in Copenhagen for about ten days from August 26th, then perhaps I shall leave for a week on a personal matter 255, then return to Copenhagen again. Therefore a cheap room for a month would be more convenient for me (if you pay 12 kr. for a long stay, then I shall probably have to pay 15-18 kr. for such a room). If you are busy, do not trouble yourself, I shall manage to find something myself on August 26-27, as the Bureau meeting will take up only the morning.

I shake your hand. Your Lenin
